Gothic Door: Doors in Gothic
houses were usually unglazed. In the most strongly Gothic houses,
doors were ledged, with vertical planks or planks in a herringbone
pattern. Oak was a prized wood. After 1860 it was more common to see
glazed and leaded front doors. Typical colours used for painted
front doors of pine or deal were dark blue, chocolate brown (favoured
by Eastlake), deep red, or else olive green. Graining was also used.
A key feature of the front door was a set of ornamental fittings,
ideally in wrought iron. Regular door-to-door postal deliveries
began in 1840 and the small letter-plate was introduced. Larger
items were received by a maid or other domestic servant. The other
furniture was a knocker and a pull to help to close the door.
Internal Gothic doors might have been ledged, or else were panelled.
As with the front door, those of better quality wood were polished,
while those of pine and deal were either grained or painted. They
were fitted with finger plates of iron or else brass.
Wood the principal strengthening and
nutrient-conducting tissue of trees and other plants and one of the
most abundant and versatile natural materials. Produced by many
botanical species, wood is available in various colors and grain
patterns. It is strong in relation to its weight, is insulating to
heat and electricity, and has desirable acoustic properties.
Furthermore, it imparts a feeling of warmth not possessed by
competing materials such as metal, plastic or fiberglass and it is
relatively easily worked. As a material, wood has been in service
since humans appeared on Earth. Today, in spite of technological
advancement and competition from metals, plastics, cement, and other
materials, wood maintains a highly unique place in most of its
traditional roles, and its serviceability is expanding through new
uses. In addition to well-known products such as lumber, doors,
furniture, and plywood, wood is the raw material for wood-based
panels, pulp and paper, and many chemical products. Finally, wood is
still an important fuel in much of the world.
Padauk wood represents any of several
species of tropical trees of the genus Pterocarpus. Padauks of the
Indo-Malaysia region
have a tendency to be larger than related species elsewhere. They are
highly prized as shade trees and for their red or reddish brown wood.
The blood-red sap is used commercially; a red dyewood, Red Saunders,
which is obtained from the padauk.
